Typical Torque and Power Curv Typical Torque and Power Curvee
Torque is a measure of an engine’s ability to do work and power is the rate at which work is done
The term brake power, , is used to specify that the power is measured at the output shaft, this is the usable power delivered by the engine to the load.
The brake power is less than the power generated by the gas in the cylinders due to mechanical friction and parasitic loads (oil pump, air conditioner compressor, etc…
The power produced in the cylinder is termed the indicated power, .

Indicated Work per Cycle
Given the cylinder pressure data over the operating cycle of the engine one can calculate the work done by the gas on the piston. This data is typically given as P vs V
The indicated work per cycle is given by PdVWi
CompressionW<0
PowerW>0
IntakeW>0
ExhaustW<0
WA > 0
WB < 0
Gross indicated work per cycle – net work deliveredto the piston over the compression and expansion strokes only:
Wi,g =area A + area C (>0)
Pump work – net work delivered to the gas over the intake and exhaust strokes:
Wp =area B + area C (<0)
Net indicated work per cycle – work delivered over all strokes:
Wi,n = Wi,g – Wp = (area A + area C) – (area B – area C)
= area A – area B
Work per Cycle
Indicated power:
where N – crankshaft speed in rev/snR – number of crank revolutions per cycle
= 2 for 4-stroke= 1 for 2-stroke
Power can be increased by increasing:• the engine size, Vd
• compression ratio, rc • engine speed, N

Indicated Work at Part Throttle
At WOT the pressure at the intake valve is just below atmospheric pressure,However at part throttle the pressure is much lower than atmospheric
Therefore at part throttle the pump work (area B+C) can be significant compared to gross indicated work (area A+C)

Indicated Work with Supercharging
Engines with superchargers or turbochargers can have intake pressuresgreater than the exhaust pressure, giving a positive pump work
Wi,n = area A + area B
Supercharges increase the net indicated work but is a parasitic loadsince they are driven by the crankshaft

Mechanical Efficiency
Some of the power generated in the cylinder is used to overcome enginefriction and to pump gas into and out of the engine.
The term friction power, , is used to collectively describe these power losses, such that:

Friction power can be measured by motoring the engine.
The mechanical efficiency is defined as:
bgif WWW ,
• Mechanical efficiency depends on throttle position, engine design and engine speed.
• Typical values for car engines at WOT are:90% @2000 RPM and 75% @ max speed.
• Throttling increases pumping work and thus decreases the brake powerso the mechanical efficiency drops and approaches zero at idle.
• Power varies with speed but torque is “independent” of engine speed

Mechanical Efficiency (2)
There is a maximum in the brake power versus engine speed called the ratedbrake power (RBP).
At higher speeds brake power decreases as friction power becomes significant compared to the indicated power
There is a maximum in the torque versus speed called maximum brake torque (MBT).
Brake torque drops off: • at lower speeds do to heat losses • at higher speeds it becomes more difficult to ingest a full charge of air.

Indicated Mean Effective Pressure (IMEP)
imep is a fictitious constant pressure that would produce the same work per cycle if it acted on the piston during the power stroke.

TWT cycle imep so recall
imep does not depend on engine speed, just like torque
imep is a better parameter than torque to compare engines for design and output because it is independent of engine speed, N, and engine size, Vd.

The maximum bmep of good engine designs is well established:
Four stroke engines:
SI engines: 850-1050 kPa* CI engines: 700 -900 kPa
Turbocharged SI engines: 1250 -1700 kPaTurbocharged CI engines: 1000 - 1200 kPa
Two stroke engines:
Standard CI engines comparable bmep to four strokeLarge slow CI engines: 1600 kPa
*Values are at maximum brake torque at WOT Note, at the rated (maximum) brake power the bmep is 10 - 15% less
Can use above maximum bmep in design calculations to estimate engine displacement required to provide a given torque or power at a specified speed.
Maximum BMEP
• The maximum bmep is obtained at WOT at a particular engine speed
• Closing the throttle decreases the bmep
• For a given displacement, a higher maximum bmep means more torque
• For a given torque, a higher maximum bmep means smaller engine
• Higher maximum bmep means higher stresses and temperatures in the engine hence shorter engine life, or bulkier engine.
• For the same bmep 2-strokes have almost twice the power of 4-stroke
